Vanilla Extract

Homemade vanilla extract. Who knew it was so easy? I didn’t, but really all you need is some alcohol and vanilla pods! I only made the one bottle and I gave it away as a gift this Christmas but I plan to make it again. I love the smell of vanilla when I’m baking and mixing it into my other ingredients. This was so simple to do and the smell was incredible as it was left to sit and colour and ferment. I highly recommend trying this out if you’re a vanilla-lover. Plus, you can keep topping up the bottle with extra beans and alcohol and it will continue to ferment as vanilla.
